tendencies towards enthusiasm

[incandescens]

Got 500 words done on my new project. Will need to do more per night to get it done on time, but it feels good to at least get it started.

Checked on Colinette yarns webpage, and found out that they aren't currently offering any of the (specific) bargain packs that I got before. Was naturally immediately seized by urge to buy some, so it's probably a good thing that they don't currently have any available. (The fact that I already have enough on hand to be working with is quite beside the point.)

Idly imagined a meeting between General Cross from D.Gray-Man and Urahara Kisuke from Bleach. I think the world might spontaneously rupture from such cumulative chicanery.

I think I would like to hibernate in winter. Had a peculiar dream which seemed to be about playing World of Warcraft on the computer and being unable to stop because I was having so much fun. I am tempted to view this as a dire warning, given my tendencies towards obsessive enthusiasm.

What do you do when the fate of the world depends on you, when your best friend has betrayed you, when your brother from a previous incarnation wants to kill you (or worse), when you’re on a quest to destroy the usurping God-Emperor but know that your travelling companion is fated to kill you, and when you’re going to fail your college exams at this rate? The answer, in shoujo, is simple. Angst. Angst with a luxurious abandon which would turn most vampires (assuming you aren’t one already) green with envy. Stare at the horizon, refuse assistance from well-meaning friends, deliver long soliloquies while sitting on the roof at night, explain to everyone that you can’t cope any longer, and hesitate fatally before finally taking action. Then angst some more about the tragic consequences of your hesitation.

If you ever do try WoW, let me know-I only just picked it up myself. Luckily, I consider myself safe from becoming hugely obsessed because I just physically can't spend THAT much time on the computer without getting sick to my stomach and headachey. So perhaps I will never be an elite MMOer. Alas.

I imagine that if I do ever take it up, all my lj friends will know all about it . . .

Imagine Cross trying to pick up Yoruichi with Urahara in the background.

Rocks fall! Everyone dies!

(or fakes their death)

[firehawk05.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Everyone fakes their death, since I'm quite confident of Yoruichi shunpo ing her way out of this one.

"No one could possibly have survived that..."

[firehawk05.livejournal.com]

Ah ha. Not one, but three survived...

Meanwhile, Aizen and the Millenium Earl attempt to outsmile each other?

Aizen fields Ichimaru Gin after he realizes that his face was better built for the I-am-totally-more-superior-than-thou smirk.

Good point.
